Set up by Dirk and Isa Rohwedder, of the Camphill Village Trust, the aim was to use the operation of a visitor centre to offer work experience, training and employment to people with special needs. We work with local care providers and local schools.
We are open 7 days a week from 10.00am. except at Christmas and New Year. However, as a base for small businesses they need time off and holidays!
We have a regularly changing schedule of exhibitions at Taurus Crafts, on average, two per month.
We give space to established and emerging artists of all types in our exhibition spaces, The Cafe', the Garden Room and outside in the immediate surrounding area.
